The original 2000 French film With A Friend Like Harry centers on a family man, Michel, who is joined on vacation by an old schoolmate, Harry, who he doesn’t remember. At first Harry seems to be just what the family needs, but the friendlier he gets the more mysteriously menacing his effects become. Kimberly Peirce has been set to direct the psychological thriller, which Wentworth Miller is adapting. Maven Pictures‘ Trudie Styler and Celine Rattray is aboard to produce alongside Michelle Krumm. Peirce is directing the remake of Carrie starring Chloë Moretz and Julianne Moore. Miller’s latest script is Stoker, a horror-suspense pic that Fox Searchlight will release March 1, 2013, with Nicole Kidman and Mia Wasikowska starring and Park Chan-wook directing.


No she won’t- she has zero follow through, directing like one film every 5 years.
Poor Kimberly. She broke onto the scene with such promise, such potential (“Boys Don’t Cry”) . . . now, she’s relegated to filming remakes?
BTW, I still have – and often wear – my t-shirt for “Boys Don’t Cry”.
Must be hard for her to get things made… Original voices have to become part of the remake machine if they want to keep working…
original film was funny .
